Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Smithtown, NY

When I was in the ninth grade, one algebra tutor changed my whole perspective on mathematics and showed me that it wasn't as scary as I initially thought. Since then, I realized the power a teacher holds in shaping young minds, and I aim to do the same with my students. Additionally, I have approximately eight years of tutoring experience as well as two years of experience as a co-teacher in an elementary school.

I'm currently a PhD student in economics at Yale University. I also have a BS in physics and math from Yale. Other subjects I enjoy are history, geography, and philosophy, and I dabble in photography and baking. I enjoy helping people understand tricky concepts and solve challenging problems, academic and otherwise.

...a coherent and thorough manner without any difficulty. The way I go about eliminating these obstacles and difficulties that each student is facing, is by creating multiple teaching strategies. Some of my strategies involved the making of a new lesson plan detailing important concepts and terms covered in class, supplemented with examples and textbook materials. Other strategies involved the use of a step by step procedure that will help to break down concepts into simpler...

Hi! My name is Albina Islam. I am a recent Health Sciences graduate applying to medical school. I love the "Ooh" moment when something just clicks for a person and I strive to figure out the different routes it takes to get my students to that point. I have experience tutoring high school and college level students in Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Anatomy & Physiology, Math (Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus I).

...of this material, but I also genuinely enjoy helping people learn about a subject that I am passionate about. It's great to be able to see my students improve their skills, while succeeding in subjects they might've had doubts on. No one genuinely hates math. The way that it was taught to you is a different story, however. Each person learns math differently, so they need to be able to find a way that connects...

...and Writing sections of the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and MCAT and have often tutored peers facing difficulties in these areas. Although I struggled with Physics in high school, I approached it differently at NYU, was extremely intrigued by it, and decided to pursue a minor in it.

...best for them. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, playing video games, reading, cooking, and going on relaxing walks. Helping others is what drives me. I like tutoring many topics, but really love math and science. To me, education is what enables us to take control of our lives. Critical thinking is useful not only in school, but in solving real-life difficulties. That is why I always focus on engaging the students problem-solving...

...Pure Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have years of tutoring experience and have tutored math and science subjects to various age groups (from elementary school students to college students). I am a tutor who wants their students to grasp a topic wholly by first, understanding what the definitions mean, second, knowing where the formulas come from and lastly, learning how to apply these definitions and formulas to solve problems.

...older brother to an ambitious teenager, I've found myself helping my brother out in his math homework and answering his questions with detailed and thorough explanations. I have experience tutoring people that I have just met, along with people I have known for many years. As I moved on to my college career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, I have found that collaborating is one of the main keys to succeeding. Chemical Engineering, my...

...passion for the sciences and, in turn, grew to enjoy teaching others about their principles. As someone who had to balance a rigorous academic workload with being captain of the varsity football team and a fraternity member, I understand the academic obstacles students face. It is my hope that I can use my background and experiences to help students reach their full potential! I am prepared to tutor for the MCAT, AP Physics, Chemistry, Biology,...

Hi! My name is Ethan, and I'm an easy-to-talk-to tutor who's passionate about helping students succeed, especially in math and science (I'm a proud nerd). I want to make learning engaging, supportive, and hopefully fun!

...platform. Through networking with mentors and advisors I have been able to direct, produce, and edit my own visual and audio works digitally. I've had several articles and radio pieces published in the university's newspaper. These experiences have assisted me in honing my communication and leadership skills. My greatest joy, however, has been mentoring peers and fellow student-athletes along my journey. Education has allowed me to give back by teaching others what I've learned.

...Making sure that every student I teach gain as much knowledge as he can. It is my duty as teacher to make sure that the student masters all the themes that we will work on. For me students are the most valuable humans because through them I learn a lot and I develop my ability to improve in my teaching, so it is my duty to make sure that all my students learn well and...
